India vs England, 5th ODI

Thanks for joining us today. We hoped you enjoyed the game. Do join us for all the other upcoming cricketing action as well. Cheers and goodbye for now.

Dhoni lifts the trophy with a wide smile on his face and joins his team-mates for the photographs.

MS Dhoni: "The series was as tight as we played in the Tests. Overall we should have won this game. We could have batted more sensibly. This is a young side and still learning. There are some new rules that we have to get used to, in the death overs in particular. It was a bad toss to lose. There was some swing for the fast bowlers. I think we were short by 25-30 runs at least. The bowlers did well under the conditions. Bhuvanesh can swing the ball both ways. Shami bowls at a good pace. Ishant was very good. He came in at first change but still kept things very tight. If you break down his spells you will see he bowled well. The problem of the all-rounder is solved to an extent with Jadeja doing well. We wish Irfan Pathan is also fully fit to add more firepower."

Raina: "It's been good. God has been really kind. I wanted to look and play till the last ball. We were 20-25 runs short at the end today but we've been good in this series overall. Whenever you bat at 6-7, you don't get many chances. I got it in this series and I wanted to play straight and play well. We had a lot of team meetings, we worked on our fitness and that is the reason. We hope to do well against Australia too."

Suresh Raina is the Man of the Series. He scored 4 half centuries in as many innings in the series.

Ian Bell: "The longer you stayed out there, the easier it got. Chasing 220 was good. The bowlers did a very good job upfront. It was a good toss to win. We wanted one of our top order at the end to get over the line. I've been up and down the order. I love opening the batting and hope to do it for a while now."

Ian Bell is the Man of the Match for his unbeaten 113.

Alastair Cook: "It was a good win. It was an important toss to win. The bowlers did well. At 50/4 you put the opposition on the backfoot. We held our nerves in the chase. Ian Bell played a fantastic knock. The ball was doing a bit all through the day. With these new regulations, if you keep wickets in hand you should get there. We came here trying to win. It has been a fantastic three months. I'd like to thank the England fans and the Indians. They took good care of us. This is a fantastic place to lay cricket."

The batting woes, particularly the top order woes remain for India. It cost them dear here in a dead rubber and will be a cause of concern. The bowling and fielding performance was much more spirited and MS Dhoni will undoubtedly like it to rub off on the batsmen as well.

This win will restore some pride for England. Ian Bell was clinical in the chase. India fought hard with the ball. Ishant Sharma, Bhuvaneshwar Kumar and Ravindra Jadeja were impressive but the score was just not big enough to defend. The game was heading for a tight finish going into the last 10 overs but the dominant stand between Eoin Morgan and Ian Bell sealed it for England. They will be elated to go home on a winning note.

It is hard to judge if India have enough on the board. It will not be an easy chase for England. There is something in the track for spinners and pacers alike. Finn used it well early on, Bresnan continued the good work later on as they ripped through the top order. Suresh Raina and Ravindra Jadeja put on a fighting stand to help India get to a total which they will feel reasonably happy with. The chase is going to be a very interesting one. Join us for that in a short while.

49.4 Bresnan to Shami Ahmed, out Caught&Bowled!! Bresnan finishes things off with a nice short delivery. It was too quick for Shami Ahmed. The top edge pings Shami Ahmed's helmet before lobbing up. Bresnan comes in to take the simple catch Shami Ahmed c and b Bresnan 1(6)

Bresnan to Bhuvneshwar, THATS OUT!! Caught!!

Dhoni: "The wicket looks very different. There is some green tinge and there could be help for the seamers. It is very difficult to make something as elaborate as this in the mountains. Credit to the local cricket association. We will not be playing a lot of ODIs in the near future. We need to work on our death bowling. I think the track will remain the same overall. No changes to our team."

Cook: "We're going to have a bowl first. This is an incedible place to play cricket. We have not quite been our best in the last couple of games but we want to do better here. Woakes comes in for Dernbach."

England have won the toss and elected to field

Pitch report: The pitch is a little damp but it is also flat and very hard. The seamers will get good bounce throughout the day and movement as well reckon Ravi Shastri and Paul Collingwood.

Hello and welcome everyone. The conditions are bright and sunny at the picteruesque Dharamashala ground. There is a sizeable crowd in already. The match itself poses an opportunity for many fringe players to get a game out in the middle. It'll be interesting to see who India rest if they do want to give the likes of Cheteshwar Pujara some game time. England have a young squad as well. Looking back, a 3-2 scoreline will look better than 4-1. That will be driving them to go home on a winning note. Stay tuned, the toss and team updates are coming up very soon.

Preview by Pradeep

International cricket has reached the beautiful shores of Dharamsala as England wound up their split tour of India with the final ODI. The series has been bolted with India securing the trophy with a convincing victory at Mohali on Wednesday, but both the sides will look to end the series on a high note.

The picturesque stadium at Dharamsala, surrounded by the beautiful Himalayan mountains will play host to its 1st ever international match after having hosted a handful of T20 League games. The venue, Himachal Pradesh Cricket Association Stadium, is set at an altitude of 1457 metres and offers one of the best views for spectators. It is against this background that the two teams tee-off one final time in the series.

India have shown glimpses of the kind of form that saw them lift the World Cup in 2011. The batting has not revolved around any single player with contributions coming from the entire batting order. Ishant Sharma has improved as the series has progressed while the emergence of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Shami Ahmed has boosted the pace department. With the series won, the players will be under lesser pressure, something that might help them to give their best at the last.

England have not gelled well as a team despite a surprise result in Rajkot. Their batsmen have evidently struggled against spin. Alastair Cook and Kevin Pietersen have shone in patches, but the find of the tour has been Joe Root. After having impressed the pundits with his technique and temperament during the Nagpur Test, Root displayed the other side of his batsmanship with a crafty innings at Mohali. Steven Finn has led the bowling department admirably but has lacked support from the other end. James Tredwell, only in as a replacement for the resting Graeme Swann has done himself no harm with some consistent performances. England have not enjoyed touring India for the shorter forms of the game but they would like to leave the country on a winning note.

Team News:

Dhoni has played the ODI series in pain after suffering a blow during practise before the Ranchi ODI. With the series won, it would be prudent for the Indian skipper to take a break. There has been no wicket-keeper replacement named in the squad though. Ashok Dinda might get a game instead of Ishant Sharma. Will Cheteshwar Pujara get a game?

I am glad he scored runs because he is one of the most god-gifted talents that is around - MS Dhoni was full of praise for the way Rohit Sharma batted in the Mohali ODI.

Apparently the umpires were pretty clear that they had told us that so I must have been deaf when I was listening to them - Alastair Cook is not exactly happy with the way the umpires handled Finn's dead ball incident in Mohali.
